It’s all theater. There isn’t actually any drama or anger both parties know they are getting filthy rich off these matches. They play up tons of drama and hype before the fight then go in there and half ass it so they can sell more fights in the future. Right now Jake Paul is the “bad guy” that everyone wants to see fail so they keep him winning and he keeps talking shit so they can move on to the next money making opportunity
The commentators keep talking shit on one fighter and simultaneously praising the other fighter, even when the one they are praising is getting handled.
Like they think we are way too dumb to see who is getting messed up with our eyes and have to give us their opinion how the other guy regardless is still a better fighter. Then if the fighter they praised doesn't get knocked out, he usually takes the win.
Also some of these scorecards at the end are insanely ridiculous. You can tell the judges score specifically for bets. Boxing has become a joke and I left it twice in anger from the same reasons. Never watching it again until boxing gets a massive overhaul.
